In the deep fall
don't you imagine the leaves think how
comfortable it will be to touch
the earth instead of the
nothingness of air and the endless
freshets of wind?

So ready for fall here! Its been a long very hot and dry summer here in Texas. We have started to cool down some and its wonderful!
What a beautiful image! The colors are exquisite. I love Autumn...named my daughter after it. :) Hope you are having a glorious weekend.
Opps! It ate my last one. I just said that I love Mary Oliver. What a woman! What a writer.
